HarpWeek provides electronic access to Harper’s
Weekly, the 19th century "Journal of Civilization."
Harper's Weekly is perhaps the most important primary
resource for examining nineteenth century America on a cumulative
week-to-week basis. HarpWeek's electronic database makes it
possible for the user to discover the lively editorials, news
stories, illustrations, cartoons, and even advertisements
that shaped and reflected public opinion in this era.
They have scanned the pages as facsimile images, then created
both thesaurus-based indexing and searchable full-text which
integrate with those pages. We have access to segments covering
the period 1857-1889.
For more information on HarpWeek, plus curriculum plans and
instructional resources, you can go to the homepage at www.harpweek.com.
